Description

Join Franchesca and Megan as they dive into the real meaning of vision—and spoiler alert, it’s way more than just seeing clearly.

In this episode, we're chatting all about visual processing—how the brain makes sense of what the eyes see—and why it matters for everything from learning to moving, talking, and even eating. We’ll break down the brainy stuff in a super relatable way and share red flags to look out for, plus simple strategies you can try at home.

💡 You’ll hear about:

  • How vision works in the brain (not just the eyes!)

  • Common signs of visual processing challenges

  • The link between vision, learning, speech & motor skills

  • How the visual and vestibular systems are besties

  • Real-life tips + cool research insights

Whether you're a parent, therapist, or just curious—this convo will help you “see” things in a whole new way. 👓
